Deftones "Live" (Root) @ the Cactus Club, San Jose CA -1996 on Project Placebo

[dfonzerrelli17]

This has to be the best taped Deftones performance i've ever seen. Fucking classic. It's hella funny to see Chino all calm, cool & collective in the beginning then right when the song starts. RAAAAAAGGGGEE!!! Great fucking performance.. a real band. East San Jo' stand up!!!

[twiztidlestat]

Fucking A I miss the nu metal movement, Deftones are still holding it down though

[TehBluebear]

Love the sound of the vocals on this, has there been an echo effect applied?

Chino is a fucking talented singer either way

[ProjectPlacebo]

....there is a slight stagger between the audio i captured "in camera" vs. the soundboard....that could be adjusted in a tighter edit....wasn't intentinal

[TehBluebear]

@ProjectPlacebo Ahh, I see.

A cool sounding effect nonetheless.

Many thanks for uploading these mate, I never saw them on TV. (Probably too young at that point).

Keep up the good work :D
